Popis: We investigated the reductions of numbers of Pseudomonas fragi and Yersinia enterocolitica artificially inoculated (6–7 log CFU/cm2) onto pork skin and belly samples when subjected to either steam condensation at subatmospheric pressure alone, or to such treatment after a hot water spray of 55 °C (15 s). Steam condensation alone (10 min/55 °C, 18 s/65 °C, 10 s/70 °C and 10 s/75 °C) afforded 2–3 log reductions of both test organisms (P
